I will support AP

AP will make yourself know very well about that particular hero you are using. It also enable you try out different type of item combinations and know deep well the effect of each combination.

No doubt AR can let you know the characteristics of each hero a bit. However, there are 90 heros out there right now. It is quite impossible for you to master each one with different items combination.

Most probably, neither you are newbie or Pro but "half past six" in terms of using the heros

Why impossible? You just need to play more wink.gif

I can state with certainty I can use over 80% of total heroes effectively. The main difference between heroes are the skills and attack speed/animation. The main skills a dota player needs is farming, being aware and teamwork. A good team can find synergies between the most random heroes. Thus, in a situation where i don't get the hero i'm best with, I can still contribute with whatever I have, since i'll have tried it at least a few times with AR.

Most heroes have pretty much similar playstyles....Go in, use skills and kill, run or die. The exceptions would be like invoker, techies or chen, where the ability to micro creeps or mine effectively makes a big difference. That's when i play AP, to try out a particular new build or playstyle. That, however would be a very rare situation, since AR gives me all heroes sooner or later where I can try it out. And there's always -repick if i get a hero I totally hate. Quite hard for me to get bored of a hero though.

AP is good for team playing. That's where the team gets to test out team based playstyles/builds with heroes that would be too hard to get on AR. At higher levels, that's what the whole game is about - teamwork. Individual skill isn't going to be worth crap without teamwork.

And for those who say AR gives imba heroes, remember that either team has the same chance to get imba heroes. And every hero is imba with the right teamwork and playing style.

agree for the statement above!!

AR is more on changes flexible the use many kinds of hero depend on situation to make changes!!!
mostly pro are playing ar for traning

AP for tournament using is normal pick not ap so won't be able to choose the hero from another site!

both are good modes.

in tournaments, it's about ap mostly and banning heroes that you may not be using from ur team and the opponent team.


AP shows that you had the best heroes your better at.

AR shows mostly about the experience and skills u had with 89 heroes currently.


hands down to training and efforts dude tongue.gif
